Arthur Jones: UFC bro Jon Jones makes more than him and Chandler combined

But when it comes to the UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones, he’s in a different league.

The day after Jones’ triumphant title defense against Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 165, his older brother, Arthur Jones, said “Bones” banks way more than his bros.

“I’m telling you he makes more then me and @Chan95Jones together,” the Baltimore Ravens defensive end tweeted, referring to the youngest Jones, Chandler, a star defensive end for the Patriots.

If that’s correct, “Bones” certainly knows how to bring home the bacon. Arthur Jones, who’s a free agent next year, will make $2 million this season while Chandler will get just under $1.5 million (though he’s guaranteed more than $7 million over four years).

Of course, Arthur and Chandler are paid a little bit differently than Jon. The football brothers get paid per season, not per fight.

Being one of the UFC’s top-five pay-per-view draws has its perks for the 26-year-old Jon Jones. But the job also means potentially getting beaten up and embarrassed in front of millions of people, not to mention a trip to the hospital with a swollen, bloody face.

A total of 26 fighters got their chance to shine on Saturday as part of UFC 190 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. Now that UFC 190 is in the books, it’s time to commence MMAjunkie’s “Three Stars” ceremony.

The man known for cranking submissions to the point of injury added eye-gouging to his repertoire. But is the controversy of Rousimar Palhares too essential to his bizarre, awful appeal for his employers to take any meaningful action against him?
